MECKLENBURG COUNTY HEALTH DEPARTMENT HEALTH DEPARTMENT PROVIDES FREE SCHOOL IMMUNIZATIONS AT BIG SHOT SATURDAYS AND MORE! School is back in session soon, and Charlotte-Mecklenburg Schools requires students to have up-to-date shot records in order to be enrolled in class. All that parents need to bring is a form of identification and their child’s up-to-date shot records to ensure clinic nurses know exactly which immunizations are needed. Shots are free for school-aged children. There are four Big Shot Saturday opportunities over the coming weeks. Hours for each clinic are 10 a.m. until 2 p.m. , Due to time constraints, we will only be able to serve the first 100 students at each clinic. If Saturday is not a convenient time, the Health Department has set aside other dates for school entry shots only in our immunization clinics. • 249 Billingsley Road (August 14, August 21, September 11 and September 18) • 2845 Beatties Ford Road (August 21, September 11 and September 18) For more information, parents or guardians should call the Health Department appointment line at (704) 336-6500 or please visit their Web site at www.meckhealth.org.
